    I'm at 2.5" in the front and 1.5"in the back. I'm gonna try the 265s but uf worst comes to worst i could just lower the billies in the front.

    It depends on what to think looks in proportion. Plus I like to be able to use chains offroading and that can change things a little.

    These are bfg a/t's in 265/75/r16 with the 5100s on the middle setting (.85 I think). Still a tiny bit of rub at full lock. Setting the fronts up to the 2.5" should easily take care of all the rub, but I'm cuttently being lazy, becuse I want to wrap the truck in all new springs anyway, when I start my overlander build.

    Can anyone post pic of OME lift with 887 coils, Dakar leaf and 265/75r16? I'm thinking of going this route as a start but wondering proportions. Post your hub to fender measurements if you have em too.

    Ha. That's what happens when I'm searching for various parameters and haven't mastered how to only search specific forums.
